Export or publish including linked files?

Prior versions allowed me to publish a map to a webpage and automatically collected all linked files into a files sub folder and put on the destination site with all links working. MM18 appears not to have this functionality ... or am I doing something wrong.

they are links not attachments. Attachments bloat the file and make it quite slow.I have used the publish function and all links are broke. Previous version published and collected linked files into a sub-folder and made the links relative to this file. This no longer seems to be the case.

I watched the webinar but the one topic I was interested in was glossed over ... how to publish maps with linked files. I have tried a couple of ways and each time the published map states links were broken.

I have unpublished the map, used pack and Go to zip the map and all linked files and moved these to a separate directory. After unpacking I note all the links have changed and point to correct files that were collected into the pack and go zip. Map works with links. Then I used publish feature and went to the published map using a Chrome browser. The map and notes are all working but non of the links work. Chrome reports a 404 file not found error.

The associated files are 77 MB in size and the publish is far to fast to have uploaded these files.

Since I cannot reproduce the behaviour you see, (although I use Firefox rather than Chrome ;)

I suggest to contact support. My suggestion would be to go to Mindjet Support directly.
To set this up, please contact customer.support@mindjet.com use your free mindjet ID or make one if it is not there yet and tell them the problem.They are happy and eager to assiste you best.

The publish feature would work differently than the web
exporter. Unfortunately links to local files would not work on the HTML 5
canvas. As a work around, I would suggest using a service like Box, Dropbox, or
Google Drive to store your files there. Then you can link these files to your
map.This will allow users to click the link to download the files from your map
as long as you provided the file to be downloaded by anyone who uses the link.
